Description: Former Bundesliga player who has been capped at German youth level. Versatile and can play in defense and central midfield, but has slotted into the Wanderers squad as first choice right fullback. Polenz and Youssouf Hersi became the most feared right wing combination in the A-League in Season 2012/13.

Being the front row bandit i am After the roar game on saturday he was walking across near me i told him to come over, he ran straight up to me, grabbed my RBB scarf, put it around his neck & kissed it & proceeded to group hug a whole bunch of us while screaming like a crazy ****...

I'm a Polenz fan no doubt, and I'm loving the way he is has worked up a great combo with Hersi...those two own the right flank. He was definitely our best performer in our worst game this season (against MV)...if anyone was watching they would have seen that Thompson was moved to the left flank in the second half which I put down to the fact Polenz was keeping him well under control. His crossing and set ups have been excellent for releasing Hersi (as seen against the Bling in the derby), and finally that little moment of piggy-in-the middle when he, Mooy and Hersi bounced the ball around between them as the Adelaide guys tried to take it off them on the right flank late in Friday's game showed he is all class.
